Helping Ninjas guest speakers are going to help us learn how kids and families can help the world!
All of our Helping Ninjas Zoom Party discussions and presentations from our guest speakers are desinged to teach our children how to be highly skilled at helping.
Helping Ninjas are inviting community leaders and organization leaders as “guest speakers” to speak on topics of helping others, helping the planet and helping oneself! Topics may include how to help those in need, how to be kind, how to live sustainability, or how to help yourself by eating healthy!
Each guest speaker will speak for approximately 15-20 minutes and will follow with a Q & A opportunity for the Helping Ninjas!
